May 8, 2000 ….
First day…. SSI Vadapalani,
Chennai…. Java 2.0 (Sun) Course…..
Totally new to computer
language…though I knew few packages (Fox pro, VB, Oracle, D2K)….. fish out of
pond.
Our faculty Ms.Ramya started teaching how to
write objects and classes with flower braces used as parenthesis, immediately
upon which I started getting nightmares filled with {{{{{{ }}}}}} which
terrified me. (Sleepless in Saligramam ??)
Settled down to understand the
basics with the help of my batch mates ( Engineering Junior guyzz…)
In a short while, got to know a batch mate who happened to be from my neighbourhood who knew programming as
well as riding a car & two wheeler :D …….. (Raji Sriram)
Promptly attended the theory and
practical classes ….Life went on smoothly until it was “ARRAYS”….. Leaving in
choice the Matrix multiplication
question during school days ,always had its toll on me :D
Meanwhile we registered in the
SSI library and explored JAVA
in depth to take up online exams (almost once in a week, at times
it was twice too ) conducted by the www.brainbench.com.
Learned very many concepts like HTML,Java
script,Internet fundamentals,Perl, CGI,Corba,RMI,Serve lets , Java Beans and
what not….The classes proved to be immensely interesting….70 of us thronged
Ms.Ramya for her expertise in teaching the Java concepts.. (cannot avoid thinking of
the Objects,classes,multi threading programs at the sight of progress (status) bar
, or the server status appearing at the bottom of the window while clicking on
a hyperlink …)
We (Me & Raji ) chose to do a
project for final evaluation on “SIMULATION OF EMAILS” & in a single day ,
learnt from my sister Vijaya Ramesh (who was a faculty with Raman computers,
Mysore then) to develop a web page using class files[.css] It was about “OLYMPIC PERSPECTIVE” which I
submitted to SSI for HTML project. [Lance Armstrong got medal in that Olympics]
We put lot of effort on our project day and night ,to get the
output as desired ,with none to guide us or no previous project samples in the
library……(Would have contacted Mr.Sabir Bhatia, no time to spare amidst our busy schedule ) When I got a favourable
output I rushed to her house and vice versa…
Hurrah…. Using String function ,
we could extract what we wanted……at last one fine moment….
We were the first to submit the
project for evaluation .
public class MyJavaClass {
public static void main(String []args) {
system.out.printIn (“ECSTASY - ENDLESS”)
;
}
}
COFFEE DAY(S).. ..Indelible…..
